10mm WW2 European forces: German armour added

Pz38(t)s


Top down


Ready for Early War action


"Above all, it's a Skoda!"


Panzers vor!


Now I want to rewatch Gurls und Panzer!
 
 French HQ and motorbikes


Inspired by the Flames Of War 3rd Edition General de Gaulle which had a motorcycle sidecar combination to add interest to his base


And a BADLY out of focus Panxer I command tank for the Germans


Germans needed a command base

 
Second French command stand for BKC


Calling all the heroes?


Had fun with the basing


Second Panzer II, loe this model.


Got to get some command teams at some point


Hot exhaust


Brrrmmm...


Oh, and esxtra hit markers!
 
French command stand, with attached anti-tank rifle, as no one else needs them!


Bone jaw, my nome is...


'Allo! 'Allo!


The red top on their kepis is there, honest!


Two higher officers, an RTO, a staff car and an anti-tank rifle


The whole French force*.

 
Finishing off the French starter set https://www.pendraken.co.uk/nbkc-fr-nfrench-starter-army-4278-p.asp
Just need a company commander stand now (and many other things).

Knew there was a stand of French infantry missing, so here it is based up.







Infantry


Get them lads!






Anti-tank guns, mortars and machineguns




Added suport is always good!


Badly sited mortars?


Truck and Panhard armoured car




Which way are we going?


Doesn't matter, the armoured car has a reverse driver!
 
Pendraken GRV136 Panzer IIC done and added to my Western European theatre Germans - what a model


Can see where the idea for the Dalek came from


Trundle trundle


It looks soooo cool, thank you Leon


Love the hatch details


Dakka


Now some French
SOMUA S35s


Looking mean


Really impressive figures, must not put off painting these for so long


Back view


Quite a tank


Here they come


Renault R35s


Not sure a one man turret was the best plan


Here we go


Back view


Allez


Waiting for trouble


Mean and moody, might risk the Panhard next.


French infantry


Ready...


Good news, they're on home soil


Few more squads to go after this


Come up quite well


Moving on


Hold the line, they'll never get through here!
 
Panzer IVd

Drat, did not notice the flock!





And motorcyclists!






 
 
Two more Panzer IIIE


Menicingly on the prowl


Maybe we will go this way


And we HAD to have some recon!




Which way round does it go?


Here we go here we go

For the European theatre, my first two Panzer IIIE are done, and the Balken Cross is tiny and on. They will do for 1940 theatres nicely. Will add allied forces to face these soon.



Clank clank


Trundle trundle...


Rear end


Just as an experiment, the German camo never shows up on black and white photos of the time, so just to try it out..

Yup, it works.

Blizkeig Commander IV - Hasty Assault

Mark and Stephen took my British at 1750 points, with effectively the same lists as before, but with two turns of preprogrammed artillery and a turn of smoke to assault my 1100 points of Germans who were in dugouts and gunpits. I chose to defend the four hills near my baseline. I has three HMGs, three mortars, two command teams and six infantry platoons, with two PAK36s teams. PAK36s and mortars on the back hill, two infantry and an HMG on the front. Infantry and Mortars in the left hill as a flank guard British stalled, turn 1 they failed to reach the table, so it took them at least four turns to advance. Artillery had landed on the right-hand hill, and rear hill, but had failed to kill anything, even with two 8 gun batteries of 25lbers . My ambush was sprung out the thicket. British infantry advancing developed an unfortunate habit of getting hit by mortars and HMGs. The British in turn 6 cleared the central hill with armour, but needed to get at least three infantry stand...
